If you code says "PrymaryDamage" as well, then that is most likely the source of your error.

[Dibelius]

lol. yeah.
and the correct syntax is e.g.:

PrimaryDamage = 100

without any spaces in the flag name.

Wath are you refearing to when you say "code"??
If you are refearing to the error text,i used the COPY/PASTE technique(hard to do,aint it? )when i posted the text

That's the pop up, not the error message.

The error message is located in:
C:\Documents and Settings\<your name>\My Documents\Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour Data\ReleaseCrashInfo.txt

ummmm.... hmmm... that can mean a variety of things...
1: Check and make sure all your weapons have a End at the end of the code...
2: Make sure all your weapons are spelled properly

what i would do to insure that it is the weapon data thats screwing up is extract a fresh copy of weapons.ini and cut your new code from the old ini and paste it into the new ini and see how that works out... basically its a trial and error thing... but what you have just refferenced in your error can be a number of things

[SamB]

make sure u renamed the weapon
